    Bill and Takeen are running backs for the high school football team. They need to be in a split running back formation, which is a triangular pattern, and stay on a line 5 yards behind the quarterback. The area of the triangle should be approximately 20 square yards. How far apart should Bill and Takeen stand from one another?
    ::Bill和Takeen正在为高中足球队跑后跑。他们需要处于一个分裂的后跑阵形(三角形),在四分卫后面的5码线上。三角区应该大约为20平方码。 Bill和Takeen应该相互站在一起多远?

    In this concept, you will learn how to find the unknown dimensions in a triangle.
    ::在这个概念中,你会学会如何在三角形中找到未知的维度。

    Finding Unknown Dimensions in a Triangle
    ::在三角中查找未知尺寸

    The area of a triangle can be found by multiplying the base times the height and then dividing the product by 2.
    ::三角形区域可以通过乘以基数的高度乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以乘以。

    A = b h 2

    ::A=bh2 阿=bh2

    This equation can also be used if you are given the area and asked to find either the base or the height.
    ::如果给您给定区域并要求您找到基数或高度,此方程式也可以使用。

    Here’s an example:
    ::举例来说:

    A triangle has an area of 44   m 2 . The base of the triangle is 8 m. What is its height?
    ::三角形的面积为44平方米,三角形的底部是8米。它的高度是多少?

    First, write the formula and substitute the values that are given.
    ::首先,写入公式并替换给定的值。

    A = b h 2 44 = 8 h 2

    ::A=bh244=8h2

    Next, begin isolating your unknown by multiplying both sides of the equation by 2.
    ::接下来,通过将方程的两边乘以2 来孤立未知的你

    44 × 2 = 8 h 2 × 2 88 = 8 h

    ::44x2=8h2x288=8h

    Then, divide both sides by 8.
    ::然后,将双方除以8。

    88 = 8 h 11 = h

    ::88=8h11=h

    The answer is 11 m. The height of the triangle is 11 m.
    ::答案是11米 三角形的高度是11米

    You can check your answer by placing all the dimensions back into the equation.
    ::您可以通过将所有维度都放回方程中来检查您的答案 。

    A = b h 2 44 = ( 8 ) ( 11 ) 2 44 = 88 2 44 = 44

    ::A=bh244=(8)(11)(11)244=88244=44

    Earlier, you were given a problem about  the running backs, Bill and Takeen.
    ::早些时候,你遇到了一个问题 关于跑后退,比尔和Takeen。

    They needed to know how far apart they should stand from one another to maintain a 20 square foot triangular pattern with the quarterback who is on a line 5 yards in front of them.
    ::他们需要知道他们应该站在一起多远 才能保持20平方英尺的三角模式 与站在他们前面5码线上的四分卫保持距离

    First, draw a picture and label it.
    ::首先,画一张画,贴上标签。

    Next, fill in the formula with the values that are given.
    ::下一步,用给定的值填入公式。

    A = b h 2 20 = ( b ) ( 5 ) 2

    ::A=bh220=(b)(5)2

    Begin isolating your unknown by multiplying both sides of the equation by 2.
    ::通过将方程的两边乘以2 开始孤立未知的你

    20 × 2 = ( b ) ( 5 ) 2 × 2 40 = 10 b

    ::20x2=(b)(5)2x240=10b

    Then, divide both sides by 10
    ::然后,将双方除以10

    4 = b

    ::4=b 4=b

    The answer is 4 yards. Bill and Taken should stand about 4 yards apart from one another.
    ::答案是4码 比尔和乔德应该站在一起4码

    Example 2
    ::例2

    A triangle has a base = 4   inches  and an area = 6   sq. inches . What is its height?
    ::三角形有一个基数=4英寸和一个区域=6 sq. 英寸。它的高度是多少?

    First, write the formula and substitute the values that are given.
    ::首先,写入公式并替换给定的值。

    A = b h 2 6 = 4 h 2

    ::A=bh26=4h2

    Next, begin isolating your unknown by multiplying both sides of the equation by 2.
    ::接下来,通过将方程的两边乘以2 来孤立未知的你

    6 × 2 = 4 h 2 × 2 12 = 4 h

    ::6x2=4h2x212=4h

    Then, divide both sides by 4.
    ::然后,将双方除以4。
